A widowed queen, heavy with child, seeks refuge in a foreign kingdom, and there her son is born: Sigurd, last of the Volsung line. But what seems a destiny of glorious revenge will not be so simple. The weavers of fate have many threads to spin, some beautiful … and some deadly. How brightly they rise from the harp-strings:
The Master of Masters.
The Glittering Heath.
The Nibelung Hoard.
Set against a backdrop of nuanced Viking culture, this first novella-length installment of Sigurd's legend begins as a young man's journey through a dangerous world, one peopled with kings and monsters, witches and giants. What begins here sets Sigurd on a course roiling with fate, will, and the machinations of gods and men—one that will shake his world to its very roots.
